GIS study to probe source of Birdflu infection in India

Soon the scientists from Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) will study bird population and carry out GIS studies on migratory bird routes to decide on the source of birdflu infection. Even as culling operation has started in Jalgaon in the Indian state of Maharashtra in the wake of fresh bird flu incidence, scientists are still groping in the dark on the possible source of infection. Though migratory birds are the main suspects, there is no confirmation.
